a bottom-tier autistic experience is being told throughout your entire childhood that you are just an overthinker when it comes to social situations and later finding out that your friends did, in fact, hate being around you and tried to communicate that through weird little hints

Jack O’Lanterns are an Irish tradition and were originally carved from turnips.
They were meant to ward off malevolent spirits, and keep them away from the home.
The name jack-o’-lantern was originally another name for will-o’-the-wisp, the atmospheric ghost lights that appear over bogs, swamps, and marshes.
The lights are a natural chemical reaction, and figure largely in English folklore.
They’re tied to the Irish legend of STINGY JACK, a deceitful drunkard who tricked the Devil out of claiming his soul. After his death, both heaven and hell refused him entry. The devil gave him an ember of hellfire, which Jack carries in a turnip lantern as his soul wanders for all eternity. Travelers must beware of encountering his spirit–and the telltale glow of the hellfire–at night.
Irish immigrants carried the tradition to the U.S., where pumpkins, already a symbol of the harvest season, were used instead. (And were also easier to carve.)
(the turnips were freakier tbh)
